Beach description
In length, a little over 500 m of a flat coastline, in width from 40 m and less, an average of about 20 m. At the Pratamnak beach goes the 5th Pratumnak street, we can assume that the main and central. Thats yes, the beach is also central to the area. Although still on Pratumnak there is Kozi Beach, on the other side of the cape, and a small beach at Cafe Cabbages & Condoms and Hotel Asia (it may seem that private and closed, but no, you can easily pass).
And yet, Pratamnak Beach is the most accessible of all available. in this district. Where the road leads to it is wide playground with sand, clean, no shade. On the left, trees grow with secluded paths below them, further, behind a small stone oblique Dongtan Beach begins, followed by Jomtien.
In the other direction, to the right – more neglected places, with garbage, there is also a gazebo, large and sharp stones in the water. With them overlooking the cottages, this is the territory of the cafe and hotel Cabbages & Condoms. In the right, northern, part of the Pratamnak beach is small people and you can sit at sunset almost alone.
True, just in the Pratumnak area are regularly committed attacks on tourists (the area is quite respectable, there is something to profit), so much to relax and not sit long worth it.
Entry, depth and waves
Since the beach is a direct continuation of Dongtan, to him the same applies to Dongtan. The caveat is that To the right of the 5th street exit to the beach, there are stones in the water. Center – buoy-enclosed swimming area. On the border with Dongtan, on the left, a small stone cape, but with him near entry into the water comfortable, sandy.
In the center of the beach there is sand, with high water there is a rather sharp approach, at low tide smoother. Off season, from the end of February, blowing strong the wind, there are often waves and all the garbage is being washed ashore. it applies not only to the Pratamnak beach, but also to the Dongtan and some extent to Jomtien.
Sun beds and shade
Immediately opposite the exit – a large open area, on the sides – a lot of greenery, palm trees and other trees grow; umbrellas. A pleasant shadow is also closer to Dongtan. To the right of exit the beach, behind the trees, again a large open area and a gazebo. Sun beds are in the center of the beach and to the left, in the direction where the Dongtan. On the right you can say a wild beach.

Infrastructure
On fifth street, just before going to the beach, there is 7-Eleven. Further on this street there are shops and a market and a cafe, everything tourist infrastructure. On the beach itself you can only find drinks, very simple snacks, which bring straight to the lounger, yes traders-traders go periodically. Nothing else.
On the right side of the beach you can have picnics, it’s like wild beach. On the alley closer to Dongtan more tourist infrastructure. There is a massage, for example. But generally the beach is small and more for relaxation, not rave. Pratamnak Beach borders the beach Dongtan (to get there, you must go to the left of the exit of the 5th street to sea), on the cape separating the beaches there are windsurfs and jet skis.
There is also a water park Pattaya Park with a tower, from where great views of the city. From it you can still go down cable car straight to the sea.

How to find the beach
Getting to the beach is very simple: 5th Street is right on it Pratamnak. If you take the 5th to the sea and immediately after 7-Eleven, turn off to the right, then less than a hundred meters after the Hotel Centar, immediately after Mom Chalay will be another exit to the beach – to the left. According to Pratamnak not public transport runs, so either a taxi or on foot.
Unless, of course, settle is not nearby. Also nice options movement in Pattaya – a taxi (and in the form of a car and in the form of a tuk-tuk) and mototaxi.
You can also go to Pratamnak Beach through Dongtan Beach, to the beginning of which can be reached from the city center on a scheduled tuk-tuk. Along Dongtana, however, the road is not passing, it is a pedestrian zone.
